Over 1,800 library leaders from public libraries, school libraries, academic libraries, and Friends and Foundations are expected to attend.

2022 LAFCON ATTENDEES SAID…

“The advocacy sessions were great – how to get the attention of those who can help us. Making the ask was extremely helpful. Brand-building sessions were very helpful and the ideas suggested will be easily implemented.”

“Just some of the things I learned: how to effectively fundraise for my library; how to get the library’s message out there and gain more supporters/advocates; how to work towards a successful tax election; and valuable information about politics and elected officials.”

The full conference program is available at https://www.lafcon.org and is being updated regularly. All sessions are available on-demand during the event and will remain accessible for 12 weeks following the conference.
